Where do you live? What is it about your locality that makes you call it “home”? This is exactly what Neighbourhood is about – the people and places that make your everyday… extraordinary. It begins with celebrating the places we live in and the loyalty we have with our suburbs.
Imagine a map of the road you stay in, then zoom out to see the greater area around it. YourNeighbourhood is about knowing those spaces and then connecting each hood to the next. By telling the many stories of what makes a place special, we also highlight the greater cities of our country – Cape Town, Joburg, Pretoria, Durban and Port Elizabeth – and all there is to experience. Zoom out even more… and in the bigger picture South Africa is in turn one large neighbourhood to the rest of the world.
